I’ve been given a nifty Nokia 6682 to experiment with as a blogging tool. It does a number of bloggy things like take photos and videos and voice record.
I’m just learning how to get the most out of its 1.3 megapixels. So far, I think it’s great as a polaroidy kind of tool– quick shots, hastily grabbed. It’s small enough and casual enough to carry around that I’m getting a lot of shots I normally wouldn’t have the guts to take.
With this photo, for instance, I feel like I have to give all credit to the phone. The kid, the lollypop, the mom’s lush red linen and flip flops. This is is summer on Dufferin street, and I wouldn’t have caught it if my camera actually looked like a camera, or if the gadget wasn’t already in my hand when the light turned green.

Hey Jill
Not bad for a cameraphone.
Did you get the USB problems all figured out?
